How do you remove this without breaking it? I hear the mag is pretty fragile. I tried tapping on the "hub" from the backside but it didn't budge.

Kevin ..... flat file the mushroomed part of the shaft to size, then use a thread file (triangular file) to clean the starting threads for the nut or obtain a die the correct size / thread pitch. (I don't know what it is).
If you need another, I need to know what alternator you have. Bosch, SEV Marachal, Rhone Paris, Motorola ..... etc. There are a couple of different ones with different mounting depths. |

Damn threads are sooo fine on this thing, not sure I can find another nut. Oh yeah, the nuts f'd also from trying to restart the threads. If I'm not successful, it is a SEV Marachal alternator. Kev |
